Subclaims¶

q2 i? Average display durations differed significantly between the AwD and the control group, with AwD requiring longer durations (264ms vs. 246ms). → Moores 2011

Moores 2011¶

Moores, E., Cassim, R. and Talcott, J.B. (2011). Adults with dyslexia exhibit large effects of crowding, increased dependence on cues, and detrimental effects of distractors in visual search tasks. Frontiers in Psychology. doi:10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2011.10.005

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Calibration procedure footnote reporting a t-test on display durations titrated to achieve individual accuracy between 60% and 90%. AwD required significantly longer average display durations (264ms vs. 246ms, t(29)=4.62, p<.001) than controls.

"The average display durations of the AwD and the control group differed significantly (264ms vs. 246ms, t (29)=4.62, p<.001)"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Adults with dyslexia show disproportionately reduced discrimination accuracy in crowded displays compared to controls — related
• The four-way interaction between cue, group, display type and difficulty was significant, with group differences largest for uncued crowded stimuli — related
• Adults with dyslexia use pre-cues to enhance discrimination accuracy, with pre-cued performance exceeding both post-cued and uncued conditions — related
• AwD showed significant set size effects in uncued conditions alongside difficulty effects, unlike controls — related
• Pre-cues and post-cues eliminate set size effects for controls but not for adults with dyslexia — related
• Crowding effects, pre-cue dependence and set size effects each correlate significantly with reading and spelling measures — related
